Python37 / Python38 hell.

[Alain De Vos]

I ended up in a python37/python38 hell. Dependencies on one removes the other and vice-verse.
My poudriere blacklist-file.

net/samba412
lang/python2
lang/python27
lang/python37
www/qt5-webengine

My make.conf

DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=python=3.8
DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=python3=3.8

Should i revert to python 3.7 ? Or wait for the next quarterly in a few days ?

Short time fix, I manually removed all py37 references in the data directory of poudriere and cleaned the cache

I guess, the hell is partially from the blacklist.

I'm on latest here, not often using poudriere, a few weeks I went through a brief period of dependency weirdness that was partly my own mistake. Nothing weird recently.

Currently rebuilding everything with python3.7 and putting python3.6 & python3.8 in the blacklist. I'm certain it will give better results.
